The quadrilateral ABCD is shown below.
Calculate the size of angle ∢BAD.
To find the measure of angle ∢BAD in quadrilateral ABCD, we apply the formula for the sum of interior angles of a quadrilateral:
- The sum of the interior angles in any quadrilateral is 360∘.
- Therefore, we have the equation: ∢BAD+71∘+95∘+120∘=360∘.
Solving for ∢BAD:
- Add the given angles: 71∘+95∘+120∘=286∘.
- Subtract the sum from 360∘: 360∘−286∘=74∘.
Therefore, the measure of angle ∢BAD is 74∘.
The correct answer to the problem is 74.
